I am using a Toggle button in XIB,
in AwakeFromNib :I set title and BG image of the button. Code works very well till OSX 10.10.5 and below but on higher versions when I click on button the text gets removed.
Set attributed Title
[self.deleteButton setWantsLayer:YES];
self.deleteButton.layer.backgroundColor = [self setButtonBGColor];
[self setButtonTitleFor:self.deleteButton
toString:@"Delete"];
[self.deleteButton setLayerContentsRedrawPolicy:NSViewLayerContentsRedrawOnSetNeedsDisplay];
- (void)setButtonTitleFor:(NSButton*)button toString:(NSString*)title
{
NSAttributedString *attrString = [self getAttributedStringForString:title];
[button setAttributedTitle:attrString];
}
Any idea hat should be done.
So finally got it right
Subclassing NSButtonCell helped me out
RPButtonTextTopCell.h
@interface RPButtonTextTopCell : NSButtonCell
@end
RPButtonTextTopCell.m
@implementation RPButtonTextTopCell
-(id) init
{
self = [super init];
if (self) {
}
return self;
}
-(id) initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)decoder
{
return [super initWithCoder:decoder];
}
-(id) initTextCell:(NSString *)string
{
return [super initTextCell:string];
}
-(NSRect)titleRectForBounds:(NSRect)theRect
{
NSRect titleFrame = [super titleRectForBounds:theRect];
NSSize titleSize = [[self attributedStringValue] size];
titleFrame.origin.y = (theRect.origin.y - (theRect.size.height-titleSize.height)*0.5) + 5;
return titleFrame;
}
@end
Utilizing This Custom Class
RPButtonTextTopCell *deleteCell = [[RPButtonTextTopCell alloc] init];
deleteCell.backgroundColor = [self setNSButtonBGColor];
[self.deleteButton setCell:deleteCell];
[self setButtonTitleFor:self.deleteButton
toString:@"Delete"];
[self.deleteButton setAction:@selector(deleteButtonClicked:)];
[self.deleteButton setTarget:self];
and its solved....
